"They Left Everything"
Peter labors and labors--and finally is given more than he knows what to do with because he is not a fisherman for himself, but for many.
This is a powerful and comforting lesson to us. The Lord is always near to us. And though it seems by our reckoning that He may delay for a time, finally the nets burst forth. As we continue to let down our nets according to our vocation, abiding in His Word, He will not only give us what we need, but what He wishes to deliver to others through us.
